The Welsh international was interviewed after the friendly with Mexico and was critical of the Dons.

He took a swipe at their ambition and believes they would be best served by investing in training facilities rather than their new stadium.

It looked like Brown was trying to engineer a summer move out of Pittodrie but the former Blackburn player took to his own Twitter account to try and defuse the situation.

Brown said: “Dons fans let me put the record straight. Yes, I think the stadium can wait because we should have our own training facilities. That would not only benefit the senior players but the young ones as well. I’m not trying to engineer a move from the club. I love Aberdeen and I love this great football club.

“If I do move on it will be a decision made by the gaffer (Craig Brown), me and my agent. But I have a year left on my contract and I fully expect to report back for pre-season.”

Brown also denied that he has a problem with Aberdeen goalkeeping coach Jim Leighton, although the keeper is not happy with everything behind the scenes. He moved from Ewood Park and had to play second fiddle to on-loan David Gonzalez and then he got a run in the team although back-up Jamie Langfield finished in possession of the gloves.

The 30-year-old said: “Regarding mine and Jim’s working relationship it is healthy thanks. Jim has nothing to do with it”

Aberdeen boss Craig Brown is also trying to strengthen his squad he is interested in St Mirren striker Nigel Hasselbaink and has also made an offer to Inverness winger Johnny Hayes.
